One of these champions is not usually played in this lane — treat the verdict as a rough guide.
How to play it
- Press early
Tristana is stronger in the first levels — shove and deny farm.
- Physical resistance
Graves deals physical damage — Death's Dance as your 2nd or 3rd item.
- Full combo or nothing
Graves is squishy — wait for every ability, go in once. No half-combo trades.

How to beat Graves
- Don't fight in fog — passive (New Destiny) gives him vision there
- Stay grouped to soak Q (End of the Line) — true damage AOE
- Quicksilver Sash breaks R (Collateral Damage) cone displacement
- Avoid walls — he uses E (Quickdraw) reload + dash off them
How to play as Tristana
- Combo: W (Rocket Jump) → E (Explosive Charge) → autos to detonate
- W resets on kill or assist — chase forever
- Build Kraken Slayer + Phantom Dancer for on-hit + attack speed
